Couple of thoughts -
Is the socket server on the same domain/ip as the flex, if not is
there a crossdomain.xml file allowing communciation in the socket
servers http root?
Are ioError and securityError events being triggered, if so what are
they returning?
Have a look via charles web debugging proxy for an easy to view
sequence of events/server responses?
